It is correct for someone ignorant to do politics ?

I wouldn't call belief in God ignorant as there is no knowledge one is capable of obtaining that would disprove the existence of God. And of course, ignorance on matters trivial to the running of a state shouldn't disqualify one from participating in politics.
I think that will be the calmest answer to that question you'll get. You just insulted theists in your OP and the theists on this forum are the biggest cry babies I've ever seen of any forum. Their persecution complexes are tingling right now.

An excellent example of trolling.
Why does religion cause you to deviant from a rather classy, calm, cool, and calculated style?
I mentioned that I thought you exhibited a trait, in PM, that you said you never were. From a differing perspective, one could see this deviation, as an excellent example of that trait.
Rather an odd position for someone who claims to be conservative, don't you think?
Our society values tolerance of others' beliefs.
Whether you believe in a god or not should not qualify or disqualify you from politics.
I never knew having a religious or spiritual belief had anything to do with your political stance.
It's the concept that belief in God also means you are ****ed in the head and therefore incapable of any 'rational thought'. Should the antichrists crack open that 'usless and misleading book' they would see that our banking industry would be better off tor the users if Christians were running it. Thefts would be zero as money is not on the list of desires for a Christian and usury would be just enough to cover operation expenses (moderate take-home pay). Nor is it ever going to be that any group in Politics is going to clean things up from it's current state.
This point isn't going to occur to anybody here but your might want to consider keeping out false Christians rather than worry about the ones who wouldn't be all that interested in it in the first place. First quality of a good politician is to be able to tell a lie, sort of hard to blend that in with the 2 rules. The more that is given the more that is expected so the verse below is for everybody engaged in work that would be for the 'servants' of Romans 13
Isa.56:11
Yea,
they are greedy dogs which can never have enough,
and they are shepherds that cannot understand:
they all look to their own way,
every one for his gain,
from his quarter.
Is that a prophetic (or pathetic if it doesn't come true) statement or just a personal wish of yours?
Just a side note Mhz: there are thousands of Christian sects, each thinking they are the only true Christians while all others are false. Why do you think your brand is any more correct than any other?
Religion and politics are one and the same thing and it would be impossible to separate them.

So who do you think the supreme being in the world is? Who formulated "the plan"? Did man invent himself?
Treat this as a billboard.............. taken at face value the sheep and goat separation in Matt 25 boils it down to two types of 'Christians', that pretty much solves the 1,000's of versions. Some probably even belive a lie can be told under almost any circumstance and it still gets them a 'gold star'.
That 'right to lie to them for their own good' doesn't exist, one of the reasons you don't like God is from the OT stories that has Him being very violent towards various people. Would you like Him better if the had 'prettied up the numbers' and lied to you?
Say you were able to trade the false Christians with honest ones, the rest of the corrupt international system is not going to allow that to happen btw, then how do they go about cleaning up the system, the odds are they will be 'assimilated' into being just like the ones they replaced. Recent history saw taht, the tipping point for the ones who had high ideals, the right to that excessive pension if you serve for 4 years. So much for dedication to change.
You can be a good politician, but don't expect to get many votes, lol.
It's like Obamers - he has to lie about two things to get some votes:
1.) Religion
2.) War
To be a "successful" politician, you still need to pander to a lot of sheep.
It is true that I have never seen more cowardice from theists in debating religion as I have on this forum. Most posters will just whine that big bad atheists are so mean for challenging their opinions, whereas any other topic is perfectly acceptable to be challenged.
My comment was not meant to cause people to post inflammatory reactions (trolling) but to head off the incoming waaambulance.
Is it implied here, by various posters, that believing in a higher entity disqualifies a person to run for and/or hold a higher elected office?
If that is the case, would there be a Canada today?
Who was the last, or for that matter ANY, atheist Prime Minister of Canada?
P.S. Well, maybe Trudeau. But he was so bloody immoral that it does not matter.

Screw the dogma - but a hint of compassion isn't wrong for anyone - especially when they're making life-or-death decisions
Just you wait until Trudeau JR. begins his campaign next election.
He'll be banging prostitutes, smoking weed and performing abortions!
